Hello people this is Aisha Mathur.Well not really you can call me Ash.Totally new here.I have been a silent reader for quite some time now.There were many people who inspired me to write..and so I thought of giving it a shot.
This is my first piece.I hope you like it.All types of comments are most welcomed.😊
-SwaRon-OS-The Storyteller's Tale-
She was in my college.In fact we were classmates since Class 6 but she never did notice me.I agree we weren't in the appropriate age to get noticed but somehow she didn't. How could she.Infact there wasn't a single chance that the class would know I belonged to it too.There was only one person in the whole school who knew my name.
Yes,my class teacher.In fact she wouldn't know if it weren't in the attendance sheet.
I was a very quiet guy,not that I was shy but I never did attract people.
I could see other students getting to know others,being friends, "best-friends" (That is what they called,though I never understood the term till date) I mean what are best friends ?
Is it like a thing to choose ?
Some are friends,some better friends and then ultimately come the "best friends"
On what rubbish terms was this World working! I didn't get it.Call it lack of social ness in me or whatever I didn't care much.
This continued till the time I was happy being alone,all in myself.
"But then at a certain age you start realising that you can't just stay alone your whole life.You need someone, maybe someone alike or different but you do.
And you really can't help those feelings that's puberty after all." Said my Class12 science professor. (Yeah he was a cool one to discuss all these stuffs with us)
But even then I didn't care.
When suddenly one day while I was just reading, she walked past me.I knew she was the same one from my past because I had been with her whole student life.Not with her but yes I knew her.
All her first few boy-friends,their breakups, and what not.I knew all.But she didn't.
She didn't know that there was someone with her all this while watching for her.
Yes I loved her.
I never knew until my science professor had made me realise what I felt for her.
She was something I could fight for my whole life.Every move of hers was loved by me.I knew that whatever she did was right and I was ready to stand with her against all odds just to be with her.
And just like any other famous love -story,she had no idea what was going on in my world.
She never knew that she had somebody who was ready to be hers all life,taking care of every little thing she wants me (..umm him) to.But if only..I could get a chance.
I don't blame my destiny as I know I had too many chances to be with her.And every time I knew I had one,I would run away from it in the fear of my own insecurities.
Yes I was afraid.I was afraid of the love of my life.Funny,is it ? But its true.
I knew I wouldn't be able to accept the fact of her going away from me and so I never let myself go nearer.But now as I am growing old,I wish I would have had enough guts to face my insecurities, to face her so I could tell her how much I loved her.
Every night I cry like an orphan infant to God,asking him why he didn't give me the strength to overcome it.But all my prayers now go in vain.Because I know she never was mine.And never would be.
That's all for today class.The story which I just narrated is a very special one for me.Because I was on the same path of destiny as the guy.But I had some guts *students laugh* and so I did face my fears and grabbed her one day.And today as I abide goodbye to you all,I would like you to meet her.
"Sharon ?"
*And then entered the most beautiful lady on this planet that every guy sitting there, fell in love with*
